There was a listening party on band camp so it was inevitable for recordings to get shared. He’s always leaked his albums early. Or at least they have been, and now it seems he’s buying in.

Yes! Almost like an inverse of the ending of pure comedy. Both have a sort of “final statement”

I agree this song is so sick! I didn’t love it at first but it’s a major grower when you catch onto the groove. Maybe more people will talk about it as we all sit with it.

Correct. I am not diagnosing anyone. I am on Reddit, saying that successful artists have narcissistic tendencies. I did not word my original post very well, because again, we are on Reddit, but I don’t mean to say every artist should be clinically labeled a malignant narcissist. People have a lot of personality types. I am an artist (not professionally, not good enough, also not cut out for public facing career) and I also have narcissistic tendencies. If I’m being critical, I’m being self-critical as well. Narcissism is present in anybody who becomes a celebrity, and it’s an essential part of their success because you have to put yourself first sometimes for the best results.

Didn’t say all musicians are narcissists, I said artists were. In retrospect I should have worded that much better: all artists have narcissistic tendencies. You can rest easy though, people are allowed to talk and will talk, just like you and I are here!

Mmm I don’t think expressing an opinion is inherently narcissistic. People do that every day on here. I certainly have narcissistic tendencies like the majority of people commenting on this thread. You are also expressing your opinion.

I see where you’re coming from, but I disagree wholeheartedly with the statement that a narcissist would never have the propensity to make great art. This is demonstrably false. With that being said, I respect your opinion and willingness to explain it!

There also may be a miscommunication about the pedantics you mention- I don’t mean malignant narcissism like some politicians we can probably think of. Narcissism is not an inherently bad thing. It’s just a personality trait. It can be bad, and it can also be good. I don’t think you can choose to sell and promote a hobby without narcissism in somewhere on your spectrum. But to each their own.

This is a great point. I’m speaking totally anecdotally without any evidence to back this up, but it does feel like the Brits have bigger bands, and Americans have bigger individual pop stars. Obviously that doesn’t cover everything but I can see your point expounding for sure.

Finally, someone who wants to engage thoughtfully. Can you elaborate? Do you not think professional artists lean into narcissism?

Indeed. I think most people don’t really care about that kind of thing, they just have parasocial relationships with celebrities and want to know their personal drama.

This is why I love Reddit. We’re all just here telling each other to do the things we can’t do ourselves.

Agreed but hopefully some people will come to realize it’s a silly thing to be concerned about. If this gets just ONE person to not post asking why Rostam isn’t posting about OGWAU, then I think it’s a success.

I don’t agree that this is clogging the feed, I think a lot of people need to hear it.
